Dr. Khemnar Shivaji Bhagwan [3]
Abstract: In the study area farmers have adopt partially modern technology i. e. drip irrigation facility, HYV seeds material, sugarcane, fruits, vegetables, food grain and other crops, increasing uses of composting biomass, machineries, improved plantation technology and micro irrigation systems, available for nearby village inputs (seeds, fertilizers, insecticides, cattle feeds and veterinary services), agricultural labour, bullock power, crop loans, electricity, irrigation, dairy centers and processing units, nearby sugar factory, good network of transports and markets, good communication facilities, agricultural advisory centers etc are available in the study area. Therefore, recently agricultural activities are positively increasing on the day by day. Mostly, eastern part of the study area is concentrate in the rice crop because of these areas situated in the hilly and heavy rainfall. Only Akole circle have leading all crops (various seasons) are grown and needs for market demanding crop. About 80 percent population depends directly upon land middle and eastern part of the Akole tahsil. The area under Soya bean cultivation in the tahsil is about 4, 607 hectares on 6.33 % in 2010-11.
